The Amorites pressed the people of Dan back into the hill country, for they did not allow them to come down to the plain.

And the border of the Amorites ran from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upward.

The boundary of the Amorites was from Scorpion Pass to Sela and beyond.

And the coast of the Amorites was from the going up to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
